What if you could transform your approach to motherhood, business, and self-care all at once? In our latest episode, we sit down with Victoria Albina, who brings her expertise as a nurse practitioner and somatic life coach to the table. We explore the intricate balance of family, personal aspirations, and health, especially for women navigating their 40s and beyond. Victoria offers valuable insights into the critical role the nervous system plays in our overall well-being, touching on its impact on digestion, hormones, and fatigue. She introduces us to the concept of emotional outsourcing and emphasizes how reconnecting with oneself, community, and nature is essential for maintaining a regulated and healthy nervous system.

Ever wondered why your body reacts the way it does to stress and relaxation? Victoria breaks down the workings of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) and its significant roles in our lives. From the familiar powerhouse of the cell, the mitochondria, to the complexities of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, we leave no stone unturned. Victoria also introduces Dr. Stephen Porges' polyvagal theory, shedding light on how prolonged sympathetic activation can lead to burnout. Understanding these mechanisms can empower you to achieve optimal well-being by balancing your nervous system responses.

In a refreshing reframe of traditional views on codependency, perfectionism, and people-pleasing, we explore our innate capacity for change through neuroplasticity. Victoria dives deep into core human needs like belonging, safety, and worth, explaining how these drive us to seek external validation. We also discuss the impact of chronic negativity and the importance of sitting with our emotions. Plus, Victoria shares a simple but effective tool called "orienting" to help stay present and reduce reactivity. This episode is packed with empowering insights, leaving you with actionable steps to enhance your well-being and entrepreneurial journey.
